Recent builds (can't remember how long ago it started) of Mozilla have included a "type-ahead" feature, roughly translating to the "find-next" feature in, say, lynx. It's loaded with the same key too - "/" - and I haven't personally found a way of telling Mozilla (Galeon, really) forget that it's in type-ahead mode.


For "~/.galeon/mozilla/galeon/prefs.js" you should be able to add the following:

// accessibility.typeaheadfind config

user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind", false);
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.autostart", false);
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.enablesound", false);

/*
 * begin possible relevant bits
 */

user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.enabletimeout", false);
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.timeout", 4000); // ^# = longer wait

/*
 * end possible relevant bits
 */

user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.linksonly", false);
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.soundURL", "beep");
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.startlinksonly", false);

This also applies to '/etc/mozilla/prefs.js' for Mozillas that understand (I guess--it's been a while since I used <1.2.1).
